Incoming tracking

To configure “incoming traffic” tracking on your site, you'll have to add a special tracking code on all pages that receive traffic (index page and all sub pages). If you are switching from a different script and have a running site, you can safely add TE3 tracking code in addition to the existing code - both scripts will track incoming traffic simultaneously.

1. Standard incoming tracking

Standard incoming tracking is simple to setup:

1.1. PHP extension

Add the tracking code below to all your .php pages that receive traffic. Add it inside the <head> </head> tag. The “include” command will most likely work for everyone.

include("/FULL/PATH/TO/public_html/your_te3_directory/in.php");

Tracking code with your full path already included

1.2. SSI extension

Add the tracking code below to all your .shtml pages that receive traffic. Add it inside the <head> </head> tag.

<!–-#include virtual=”/your_te3_directory/in.php?$QUERY_STRING” -->

Tracking code with your directory name already included

2. JavaScript tracking

This method is applicable in two situations:

2.1. If you are using caching - Wordpress users (Super Cache, Total Cache), Nginx caching, etc.

Configuration for Wordpress users:

Install TE3 and Wordpress.
Open your current theme header.php file (usually found in wp-content/themes/THEMENAME/header.php location).

To set up incoming tracking place the following code after the <body> tag and rename domain.com to your actual domain name:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function getquery(n) {
    var half = location.search.split(n+'=')[1];
    return half ? decodeURIComponent(half.split('&')[0]):null;
}
 
function te3_js_tracking() {
    // parameters to be changed
    var domain = 'domain.com/te3/'; // domain with TE3 dir, e.g. domain.com/te3/
 
    var docref = parent.document.referrer;
    var ref= getquery('ref');
    var rnd = Math.floor(Math.random() * 99999999);
 
    if(!docref) docref='none';
    if(!ref) ref='';
 
    docref=encodeURIComponent(docref);
    //document.write('<div style=\"display: none;\"><img src=\"http://'+domain+'in.php?p=default&ref='+ref+'&rnd='+rnd+'&rImg=1&refremote='+docref+'\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\"></div>');
 
    var img = document.createElement('img');
    img.setAttribute('src', 'http://'+domain+'in.php?p=default&ref='+ref+'&rnd='+rnd+'&rImg=1&refremote='+docref);
    img.setAttribute('width', '1');
    img.setAttribute('height', '1');
    img.setAttribute('border', '0');
 
    var elem = document.createElement('div');
    elem.style.cssText = 'display: none;';
    elem.appendChild(img);
    document.body.appendChild(elem);
}
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(event) {
te3_js_tracking();
});
 
// -->
</script>

Adjust “domain” variable in the te3_js_tracking() function.
Test it to see if traffic is being counted correctly. Point your browser to a page where you have placed the tracking code and check TE3 stats to see if it was counted.

Note:
We have already prepared the code with your actual full path, public html and directory - navigate to Main header, select System info from the Maintenance-drop down menu and copy-paste your JavaScript incoming tracking code.

2.2. It allows you to install TE3 on sub.domain.com (separated server) and trade traffic on domain.com (primary server).

If you either can't or don't want to install TE3 on your primary server, remote incoming tracking might be a solution for you. This method allows you to install TE3 on sub.domain.com (separated server) and trade traffic on domain.com (primary server).

Configuration:

Install TE3 on sub.domain.com on your secondary server.

Add remote tracking code (copy paste from the frame below) to all your pages on domain.com that receive traffic.

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function getquery(n) {
      var half = location.search.split(n+'=')[1];
      return half ? decodeURIComponent(half.split('&')[0]):null;
}
 
function te3_remote_track() {
    // parameters to be changed
    var domain = 'sub.domain.com', // te3 domain
        path = 'te3', // te3 path
        preventfrom = 'domain.com'; // prevent double track from domain.com
 
 
    var docref = parent.document.referrer,
        ref= getquery('ref'),
        rnd = Math.floor(Math.random() * 99999999);
 
    if(!docref) docref='none';
    if(!ref) ref='';
 
    docref=encodeURIComponent(docref);
//    document.write('<div style="display: none;"><img src=\"http://'+domain+'/'+path+'/in.php?p=default&rImg=1&preventfrom='+preventfrom+'&ref='+ref+'&rnd='+rnd+'&refremote='+docref+'\" width=\"0\" height=\"0\" border=\"0\"></div>');
 
    var img = document.createElement('img');
    img.setAttribute('src', 'http://'+domain+'in.php?p=default&ref='+ref+'&rnd='+rnd+'&rImg=1&preventfrom='+preventfrom+'&refremote='+docref);
    img.setAttribute('width', '1');
    img.setAttribute('height', '1');
    img.setAttribute('border', '0');
 
    var elem = document.createElement('div');
    elem.style.cssText = 'display: none;';
    elem.appendChild(img);
    document.body.appendChild(elem);
}
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(event) {
te3_remote_track();
});
// -->
</script>

Adjust “domain”, “path” and “preventfrom” variables in the te3_remote_track() function.
Test it to see if traffic is being counted correctly. Point your browser to a page where you have placed remote tracking code and check TE3 stats to see if it was counted.

Javascript tracking method is less accurate than standard incoming tracking, therefore it should only be considered, if there is absolutely no other option.
